If your app is offline, then you'll need to have your own internal datastore of OSM data. There are a number of ways you could do this- anything from using SpatiaLite to storing the data in plain XML or PBF and running your own queries. I think these are the issues you need to be thinking about first- your application's internal datastore and logic mechanisms. OSM does not have a Places API, or a Cities API. All OSM data is stored in object tags. That means you'll either need to make your application smart in its querying of its the OSM data, or else you'll need to pre-process the OSM data into a form your app will find most convenient. Good luck, - Serge _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
